Weird behavior with text boxes (PPT 2007)

[Guest]

I've seen some weird things going on with the text boxes in PowerPoint 2007.
I have a standard template with text in the main body text frame. If I press
Ctrl-A to select all of this text, and then single-click in a different text
frame that I created, PPT cuts the text from the main frame and pastes it
into the additional created frame. This is incredibly annoying!

Has anyone else observed this?

I haven't seen it here and following your instrux with the default new blank
presentation with a text slide inserted, couldn't make it happen.

Is there an additional step or ...?
